A CULTURAL ICON

Introducing The Malt District

The Malt District will transform a former industrial site into an important and exciting cultural asset. The precinct will combine modern apartments, generous public space, boutique workspaces and retail – much of which will be built thoughtfully into existing buildings, giving them a new lease on life. Great coffee, impressive artists and makers, restaurants, a microbrewery with a gastro pub, a boutique hotel, shops, grocers and a rooftop bar will be part of the mix pulling people into The Malt District.

A wealth of history

The Richmond malting site, home to the landmark silos and the Nylex Clock, has a unique past. As Melbourne grew from a small colonial town to a wealthy Victorian city, this area became a major entertainment venue – one of the many that sprung up around the city. However it is the site’s long history of malting that has produced some of Melbourne’s most unusual landmark buildings. The industrial mix of concrete, timber, brick, glass and steel has informed and inspired the architecture and design of the new Malt District. Several of the major heritage buildings – and the Nylex Clock itself – will be retained within the precinct, with the colour palette incorporating the earthy yellows of barley and the deep browns and greys of factory timber and concrete. This commitment to reflecting the origins of the buildings will transport the site’s rich past into its 21st century transformation.

Charming Neighbourhood

Cyclist Paradise

Discover Cremorne

The mix of old and new architecture offers a charm unique to Cremorne.

It’s the ideal jumping off point for a bike ride around the river and through parks, or into the neighbouring suburbs including the CBD.

Tucked into a pocket between Richmond and the Yarra River, Cremorne is already a much-loved space for a significant group of young residents and forward thinking businesses.

Coppins Corner

Coppins Corner will be the first set of apartments at The Malt District. Featuring 1, 2 and 3 bedroom apartments, the Fender Katsalidis designed building will be an exhilarating place to live. Residents will enjoy the generously created public spaces as well as exclusive spaces only accessible to residents of Coppins Corner.

Commercial

The vision for The Malt District is for a mixed-use precinct that is compelling, enjoyable and attuned to today’s retail needs. The retail landscape has been thoughtfully planned and will appeal to those commercial operations prepared to realise the great potential of such a remarkable location.
